< Hebrews 13 >

1 Continue in brotherly love.
ⲁ̅ⲧⲙⲛⲧⲙⲁⲓⲥⲟⲛ ⲙⲁⲣⲉⲥϭⲱ
2 Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers, for by so doing some people have entertained angels without knowing it.
ⲃ̅ⲧⲙⲛⲧⲙⲁⲓϣⲙⲙⲟ ⲙⲡⲣⲣⲡⲉⲥⲱⲃϣ ϩⲓⲧⲛ ⲧⲁⲓ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲁϩⲟⲓⲛⲉ ϣⲉⲡ ϩⲉⲛⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲟⲥ ⲉⲣⲟⲟⲩ ⲉⲛⲥⲉⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲁⲛ
3 Remember those in prison as if you were bound with them, and those who are mistreated as if you were suffering with them.
ⲅ̅ⲁⲣⲓⲡⲙⲉⲉⲩⲉ ⲛⲛⲉⲧⲙⲏⲣ ϩⲱⲥ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛⲙⲏⲣ ⲛⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⲙⲛ ⲛⲉⲧⲙⲟⲕϩ ϩⲱⲥ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛϣⲟⲟⲡ ϩⲱⲧ ⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ ϩⲙ ⲡⲥⲱⲙⲁ
4 Marriage should be honored by all and the marriage bed kept undefiled, for God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterers.
ⲇ̅ⲡⲅⲁⲙⲟⲥ ⲧⲁⲓⲏⲩ ϩⲛ ϩⲱⲃ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲡⲙⲁ ⲛⲛⲕⲟⲧⲕ ⲧⲃⲃⲏⲩ ⲙⲡⲟⲣⲛⲟⲥ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲙⲛ ⲛⲛⲟⲓⲕ ⲛⲉⲧⲉⲣⲉ ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲛⲁⲕⲣⲓⲛⲉ ⲙⲙⲟⲟⲩ
5 Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, for God has said: “Never will I leave you, never will I forsake you.”
ⲉ̅ⲙⲁⲣⲉ ⲡⲉⲥⲙⲟⲧ ϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲉⲛⲟⲩⲙⲁⲓϩⲟⲙⲛⲧ ⲁⲛ ⲡⲉ ⲛⲧⲉ ⲛⲉⲧϣⲟⲟⲡ ⲣⲉϣⲧ ⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ ⲛⲧⲟϥ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲁϥϫⲟⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲛⲛⲁⲃⲟϣⲕ ⲟⲩⲇⲉ ⲛⲛⲁⲕⲁⲁⲕ ⲛⲥⲱⲓ
6 So we say with confidence: “The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid. What can man do to me?”
ⲋ̅ϩⲱⲥⲧⲉ ⲛⲧⲉⲧⲛϫⲟⲟⲥ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛⲧⲏⲕ ⲛϩⲏⲧ ϫⲉ ⲡϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲁⲃⲟⲏⲑⲟⲥ ⲛϯⲛⲁⲣ ϩⲟⲧⲉ ⲁⲛ ϫⲉ ⲉⲣⲉⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲛⲁⲣⲟⲩ ⲛⲁⲓ
7 Remember your leaders who spoke the word of God to you. Consider the outcome of their way of life and imitate their faith.

8 Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever. (aiōn g165)

9 Do not be carried away by all kinds of strange teachings, for it is good for the heart to be strengthened by grace and not by foods of no value to those devoted to them.
ⲑ̅ⲙⲡⲣϣⲉⲉⲓ ϩⲛ ϩⲉⲛⲥⲃⲱ ⲛϣⲙⲙⲟ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲉⲩϣⲟⲃⲉ ⲛⲁⲛⲟⲩⲥ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲉⲧⲣⲉ ⲡϩⲏⲧ ⲧⲁϫⲣⲟ ϩⲛ ⲟⲩϩⲙⲟⲧ ϩⲛ ϩⲉⲛϭⲓⲛⲟⲩⲟⲟⲙ ⲁⲛ ⲛⲁⲓ ⲉⲙⲡⲟⲩϯϩⲏⲩ ⲛϭⲓ ⲛⲉⲧⲙⲟⲟϣⲉ ⲛϩⲏⲧⲟⲩ
10 We have an altar from which those who serve at the tabernacle have no right to eat.
ⲓ̅ⲟⲩⲛⲧⲁⲛ ⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⲛⲟⲩⲑⲩⲥⲓⲁⲥⲧⲏⲣⲓⲟⲛ ⲉⲙⲛⲧⲟⲩ ⲉⲝⲟⲩⲥⲓⲁ ⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⲉⲟⲩⲱⲙ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛϩⲏ ⲧϥ ⲛϭⲓ ⲛⲉⲧϣⲙϣⲉ ⲛⲧⲉⲥⲕⲏⲛⲏ
11 Although the high priest brings the blood of animals into the Holy Place as a sacrifice for sin, the bodies are burned outside the camp.
ⲓ̅ⲁ̅ⲛⲍⲱⲟⲛ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲉϣⲁⲣⲉ ⲡⲁⲣⲭⲓⲉⲣⲉⲩⲥ ϫⲓ ⲡⲉⲩⲥⲛⲟϥ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲛⲉⲧⲟⲩⲁⲁⲃ ⲛⲛⲉⲧⲟⲩⲁⲁⲃ ϩⲁ ⲛⲟⲃⲉ ϣⲁⲩⲣⲉⲕϩ ⲛⲉⲩⲥⲱⲙⲁ ⲡⲃⲟⲗ ⲛⲧⲡⲁⲣⲉⲙⲃⲟⲗⲏ
12 And so Jesus also suffered outside the city gate, to sanctify the people by His own blood.
ⲓ̅ⲃ̅ⲉⲧⲃⲉ ⲡⲁⲓ ϩⲱⲱϥ ⲓⲏⲥ ϫⲉ ⲉϥⲉⲧⲃⲃⲉ ⲡⲗⲁⲟⲥ ϩⲓⲧⲙ ⲡⲉϥⲥⲛⲟϥ ⲙⲙⲓⲛ ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲁϥⲙⲟⲩ ⲡⲃⲟⲗ ⲛⲧⲡⲩⲗⲏ
13 Therefore let us go to Him outside the camp, bearing the disgrace He bore.
ⲓ̅ⲅ̅ⲙⲁⲣⲛⲃⲱⲕ ϭⲉ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϣⲁⲣⲟϥ ⲡⲃⲟⲗ ⲛⲧⲡⲁⲣⲉⲙⲃⲟⲗⲏ ⲉⲛϥⲓ ϩⲁ ⲡⲉϥⲛⲟϭⲛⲉϭ
14 For here we do not have a permanent city, but we are looking for the city that is to come.
ⲓ̅ⲇ̅ⲙⲛⲧⲁⲛ ⲡⲟⲗⲓⲥ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲙⲡⲉⲉⲓⲙⲁ ⲉⲥⲛⲁϭⲱ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲧⲉⲧⲛⲁϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲧⲉⲧⲛϣⲓⲛⲉ ⲛⲥⲱⲥ
15 Through Jesus, therefore, let us continually offer to God a sacrifice of praise, the fruit of lips that confess His name.
ⲓ̅ⲉ̅ⲙⲁⲣⲛⲧⲁⲗⲟ ϭⲉ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ ⲛϩⲉⲛⲑⲩⲥⲓⲁ ⲛⲥⲙⲟⲩ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓ ⲧⲟⲟⲧϥ ⲛⲟⲩⲟⲉⲓϣ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲙⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲉⲧⲉ ⲡⲁⲓ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲕⲁⲣⲡⲟⲥ ⲛⲛⲉⲛⲥⲡⲟⲧⲟⲩ ⲉⲛϩⲟⲙⲟⲗⲟⲅⲉⲓ ⲙⲡⲉϥⲣⲁⲛ
16 And do not neglect to do good and to share with others, for with such sacrifices God is pleased.
ⲓ̅ⲋ̅ⲡⲡⲉⲧⲛⲁⲛⲟⲩϥ ⲇⲉ ⲙⲛ ⲧⲕⲟⲓⲛⲱⲛⲓⲁ ⲙⲡⲣⲣⲡⲉⲩⲱⲃϣ ⲛⲉⲓⲑⲩⲥⲓⲁ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲛⲧⲉⲓⲙⲓⲛⲉ ⲛⲉⲧⲣⲁⲛⲁϥ ⲙⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ
17 Obey your leaders and submit to them, for they watch over your souls as those who must give an account. To this end, allow them to lead with joy and not with grief, for that would be of no advantage to you.
ⲓ̅ⲍ̅ⲥⲱⲧⲙ ⲛⲥⲁ ⲛⲉⲧⲛⲛⲟϭ ⲛⲧⲉⲧⲛϩⲩⲡⲟⲧⲁⲥⲥⲉ ⲛⲁⲩ ⲛⲧⲟⲟⲩ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲛⲉⲧⲟ ⲛⲟⲩϣⲏ ⲛⲣⲟⲉⲓⲥ ϩⲁ ⲛⲉⲧⲙⲯⲩⲭⲏ ϩⲱⲥ ⲉⲩⲛⲁϯ ⲗⲟⲅⲟⲥ ϩⲁⲣⲱⲧⲛ ϫⲉ ⲉⲩⲉⲣ ⲡⲁⲓ ϩⲛ ⲟⲩⲣⲁϣⲉ ⲛⲥⲉⲁϣⲁϩⲟⲙ ⲁⲛ ⲧⲁⲓ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲧⲉⲧⲛⲛⲟϥⲣⲉ
18 Pray for us; we are convinced that we have a clear conscience and desire to live honorably in every way.

19 And I especially urge you to pray that I may be restored to you soon.

20 Now may the God of peace, who through the blood of the eternal covenant brought back from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great Shepherd of the sheep, (aiōnios g166)
ⲕ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲛϯⲣⲏⲛⲏ ⲡⲉⲛⲧⲁϥⲉⲓⲛⲉ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ ϩⲛ ⲛⲉⲧⲙⲟⲟⲩⲧ ⲙⲡⲛⲟϭ ⲛϣⲱⲥ ⲛⲉⲥⲟⲟⲩ ϩⲙ ⲡⲉⲥⲛⲟⲩ ⲛⲧⲇⲓⲁⲑⲏⲕⲏ ⲛϣⲁ ⲉⲛⲉϩ ⲡⲉⲛϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ ⲓⲏⲥ (aiōnios g166)
21 equip you with every good thing to do His will. And may He accomplish in us what is pleasing in His sight through Jesus Christ, to whom be glory forever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)

22 I urge you, brothers, to bear with my word of exhortation, for I have only written to you briefly.

23 Be aware that our brother Timothy has been released. If he arrives soon, I will come with him to see you.
